Genetic lessons learned from X‐linked Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial diseases [PDF]
Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) is a rare syndrome conferring predisposition to clinical disease caused by weakly virulent mycobacteria, such as Mycobacterium bovis Bacille Calmette Guérin (BCG) vaccines and nontuberculous, environmental mycobacteria (EM).

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) and X-linked hypophosphataemia (XLH) are rare genetic diseases, which lead to childhood-onset bone fragility, low-trauma fractures and limb deformities. OI occurs as a result of impaired type 1 collagen synthesis at different

An overview of Dent disease [PDF]
Dent disease is a rare inherited kidney tubulopathy caused by mutations in either the CLCN5 (Dent disease 1) or OCRL1 (Dent disease 2) genes, and which is often underdiagnosed in practice.

Late ophthalmology findings in a X-linked juvenile retinoschisis patient [PDF]
X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (XLRS) is a vitreoretinal degeneration caused by mutations in the RS1 gene, generally characterized by bilateral maculopathy and peripheral retinoschisis leading to progressive visual loss during the first 2 decades of ...

Ethics in pre-ART genetics: a missed X-linked Menkes disease case [PDF]
AbstractAssisted reproductive technology (ART) has experienced dramatic progress over the last 30 years, and gamete donation is routine in fertility clinics. Major advances in genetic diagnostics are part of this development due to the ability to analyze multiple genes or whole genomes fast and to an affordable prize.

Dermatoscopic aspects of the Microphthalmia with Linear Skin Defects (MLS) Syndrome [PDF]
The association of microphthalmia and linear skin defects was named microphthalmia with linear skin defects syndrome (MLS) or MIDAS syndrome (microphthalmia, dermal aplasia, and sclerocornea), an X-chromosomal disorder manifesting mainly in females.
